Chris Hennick created MNG-6284:
----------------------------------
Summary: <executions> inside <pluginManagement> should raise a
warning
Key: MNG-6284
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6284
Project: Maven
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 3.0.5
Environment: Ubuntu 14.04.3
Reporter: Chris Hennick
When I was setting up my project's pom.xml, I was unaware that there was a
difference between project/build/pluginManagement/plugins and
project/build/plugins. These StackOverflow questions indicate I'm not the only
one who was confused:
*
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18557245/not-able-to-bind-plugin-goals-to-maven-lifecycle-phases
*
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/23785443/binding-to-lifecycle-in-maven-does-not-work-on-failsafe-and-integration-test
If we have to have such a confusing schema, then can we please at least raise a
warning when the confusion inevitably occurs, given how easy it is to detect
(since AFAICT there'd be no reason to put an executions tag inside
pluginManagement/plugins/plugin)?
